Temporary Chairman Frank Ferroll called
the adjourned United Labor County Cpnven-
ton to order at sx O'Clock last night when the
Big hall at Cooper Union was only half full.
Some OF tho delegates were at the Union
square meeting. It 10 the habit OF the Labor
Conventions to spend twice as much time In
speech making and cheering as In work. But
Chairman Ferroil notified the Convention that
there was trouble about the hall. because at
its last session the Convention sat after mid
night, and that II this Convention did not Nm
fish before midnight It would have to pay two
days rent. e..
The delegates didn't see tho use OF wasting
money that way. and they went to work ate once

j. K. Sullivan moved that the Convention
proceed to nominations at once and that no
speeches be made In nominating candidates.
Timothy Shea objected that platform ought
to be made first before o ticket was nominated.

ton OF principles first. Other delegates object
ed that the platform was already made Tho

Convention was called only to nominate tick
